Upsetting news to hear #StarTrek Starfleet Academy will not go past Season 2. The fandom's inability to embrace any new storytelling outside of nostalgia might as well be the death knell for the fandom.

We order a new Ford Maverick.
Dealer calls and said they got financing approved but it’s a high rate so they recommend we put more down and in the future get approved for the Ford credit line to make things easier.
I ask the rate.
12.99%
I say let’s pause on the deal and let me make a few calls.
5 mins later the phone rings.
They magically got it down to 8.49%.
Don’t let these guys try to screw you over.

"Would you rather bomb Iran or give woke teachers a $62,500 bonus?"
Bomb Iran. Easily.
Not even close.
Didn't even think about it.
No hesitation.

THIS IS WILD…
Passenger says United denied a simple request that could literally save their life.
Severe peanut allergy.
One exposure = possible fatal reaction.
All they asked for?
A small buffer zone on the plane.
Instead… they were told to basically deal with it and “email the company.”
On a packed flight where people are eating inches away…
That’s not a minor issue.
That’s life or death.
Do airlines have a responsibility here… or is this asking too much? ⬇️ 🇺🇸

@R1Stephanie @Rivian Um , you meant actual test drives. Joy rides are silly.

Television Rules the Nation
Demo drives engage buyers with EVs. How do buyers shake hands when only 40% recognize you?
R2 mass production requires targeted streaming/TV ads for US sales to cross the chasm to the majority. Let's introduce buyers to @Rivian in their homes.

Climb in and experience the thrill of R2. Electric Joyride is live in Austin til March 18. *Professional driver shown on closed course. Always drive with caution.

Went to the grocery store this morning
Bread, milk, eggs
$47.63
The screen asked if I'd like to round up to support a children's hospital
I pressed no
The cashier looked at me
The woman behind me looked at me
My wife looked at the ceiling
Again
This company made $14 billion last year
They can round up
Went to get gas after
The pump asked if I'd like to add $1 to support veterans
I support veterans
I pressed no
A $200 billion oil company asking me to fund their charity while I'm paying $3.89 a gallon
That's not philanthropy
That's outsourcing
Drove through for lunch
Taco Bell
The screen said "round up for education?"
A fast food company asking me to fund scholarships while paying their employees $11 an hour
I pressed no
My wife said "you know you're arguing with screens today"
She was right
But the screens started it
Went to the pharmacy
Picked up a prescription
$340 after insurance
The screen asked if I'd like to donate $1 to help families in need
I just paid $340 for a medication that costs $4 to manufacture
And now you want a dollar
I pressed no
The pharmacist said "it's just a dollar"
I said "it's never just a dollar"
She didn't respond
Got home
My wife said "you said no to a children's hospital, veterans, education, and families in need today"
I said "no. I said no to four corporations who want me to fund their goodwill so they can put it in their annual report"
She was quiet
Then she said "you're not wrong"
I said "I know"
She said "but you're still going to look like a monster"
I said "I'd rather look like a monster than quietly fund a billion-dollar company's PR strategy at the register"
She didn't disagree
But she didn't look at me either
Plz fix. Thx.
